    Is there any special reason why you bought this car?

    Nice looking for an MPV, with good space

    What was the dealer like?

    Very poor experience. Bought from Evans Halshaw, wouldn't recommend them. Quite pushy and as it turns out not a good after sales service. It seems once they've got your money, they stop providing a service.

    Have you had any problems with the car?

    I've been quite happy with the actual car, there has been a couple of minor problems but even these have difficult to resolve with this company. There was a small oil leak, and the windscreen fluid 'gunged' up. The car was just out of warranty but Ford were very good when I went to one of their dealerships and covered most of the cost, as Evans Halshaw were unhelpful and uninterested so I decided to get it resolved somewhere else.

    What's most practical about your car?

    Interior space and flexibility.

    Favourite gadget, option or accessory?

    This is not a particularly fancy model.
